The 9 Enneagram Archetypes
If you want to learn about the Enneagram personality types, I created a webpage and a downloadable cheatsheet for you to print out and take notes on.
If you want to dig in deeper to the archetypes, I’ve curated a list of podcasts, movies, and stories for each of the enneagram types too. This gives you the opportunity to energetically experience the types in their own words.
What is this Enneagram and why should I care?
Let’s back up for a second and go to the beginning. Here I share a little bit about the history of the Enneagram, the sacred geometry contained in the symbol, what the centers of intelligence are, and the reasons why I study the Enneagram. I even have a post on Enneagram tests here.
The psychodynamics of the Enneagram types
Each Enneagram type has a specific set of attributes that contribute to how and why personality functions the way it does. You can read more about the superpowers and Achilles heels of each type, the emotional patterns, focus of attention, stressors, and coping strategies. I even created an ebook that details the triggers, defensive reactions, and how to respond to each of the types when you find yourself in conflict.
What is the invitation to integration for each type?
With the start of the new year, I wrote a letter to each of the types detailing the path of growth for each Enneagram type. You can download it here.
If you want to learn more:
You are welcome to send me a message and we can chat. I do workshops virtually and in-person for teams or community groups customized to your dynamics and curiosity. I’ve also got a downloadable worksheet with my favorite books to get started learning about the system here. Browse all of my blog posts about the Enneagram here. You can read more about relationship dynamics between types here. And find information on types that look alike here, for those trying to discern which one is right for them.
I hope this helps! I’m excited for you to begin this journey of discovery using this powerful tool.
